It is legally permissible and required under Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. b GDPR for the execution of contractual relationships with you

 

4. Cookies

 

I use cookies for operating the website. These are files that your browser stores on your device when you visit my website. They serve to store data about your visit, enable recognition, and allow statistical evaluation, improvement, and operation of my website.

 

The legal basis is Art. 6(1) sentence 1 lit. f GDPR. Temporary cookies are deleted after leaving the website. Most browsers automatically accept cookies. You can, however, configure your browser so that no cookies are stored or that a notification is displayed before a new cookie is created. Complete deactivation of cookies may prevent you from using all functions of the website.

 

5. Analytics Tools

 

I use the website analytics service Google Analytics, a web analytics service of Google Inc. (1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA; hereinafter "Google").

The information is used to evaluate website usage, compile reports about website activity, and provide other services related to internet usage for market research and tailored website design. This information may also be transferred to third parties if legally required or if third parties process this data on Google’s behalf. Your IP address will not be merged with other data from Google. IP addresses are anonymized (IP masking).

 

You can prevent cookies by adjusting your browser software, but some functions of the website may not be fully usable. You can also prevent the collection and processing of data generated by cookies and related to your website usage (including your IP address) by downloading and installing a browser add-on provided by Google. More information about Google Analytics privacy can be found in the Google Analytics help.

 

For Google Ads Conversion Tracking, if you arrived at this page via a Google ad, a cookie is set on your device for analysis and statistical evaluation. The cookie is valid for 30 days. No personal identification occurs, only the observation that the user arrived via a Google ad. This use can be prevented by rejecting relevant cookies in your browser settings.
